Target Lock, Back Pedal & a Prayer?

Try legacy camera and a controller. Also where did the mentor touch you

Ya'll getting trolled so hard and you don't even realise it.

Sounds like a classic case of "No we can't do that it'll break [EXAMPLE]"

Go to legacy camera, get used to it, stop complaining.

If using a superior method breaks something else then you fix what broke, you don't ignore the superior method.

I wonna address you very specifically now.
You can use target lock ,while in legacy mode, and it does the same thing. Using legacy doesn't change anything. If you had ever tried it, you'd have known that smart aleck.
Target lock, isn't a control scheme, it's a camera control that for SOME reason, forces your control scheme to not adhere to standard or legacy.
Changing to legacy, or standard, does not tell the camera "keep me and this target on screen the best you can".
Fixing this, would have no baring on legacy or standard. You still have to use one or the other. Ergo, you wouldn't be "iGnoRinG tHe sUpeRioR cOnTroL meThoD". You'd be /enhancing/ which ever you found to be better.

I personally use Focus target on the boss and just move my mouse around to run. I tried the legacy mode and I do not like it at all.

But there is something that I noticed, some people dont know how to use the left mouse button to "look around" when your character is facing a different direction.

This is the only thing I know that could be usably ingame atm:
E.g.: boss is casting a full arena "eye" that gives you doom (Yes CT raids PTSD)
your character is turned away, you click and HOLD down left mouse button and turn around to see if the eye is done or not, you can still move forward - whcih is away from the boss as your body faces - if you want, just need to keep pressing that button and press W)
Usually works for me. Though, it is true that when you let it go it can cause you a bit of confusion as any movement sets back your view to "body face" direction with a quick spin.

Added value of this option: Use samurai, draw your sword, click left mouse button, click A and D back and forth repeatedly. enjoy the meme.

I have poor eyesight too and as soon as I saw what the target lock does to your camera I turned the garbage off immediately.

I suggest you do the same.
